Born Anderson Benoit Gallegos, the 33-year-old producer has spent the last decade refining his now-signature deep, heavy, and emotional bass music. A forthcoming LP, Nostalgia, promises more of the guitar he used to try and play as a kid, but not before staging a first-of-its-kind MorFlow Fest, blending bass music and the flow arts (think glovers, hoopers, poi bois and girls, even shufflers).
“It’s a full-spectrum cultural experience rooted in movement, intention, and community,” a press release says. U.K. bass icon Caspa is also on the bill along with Wreckno x Super Future, plus a B2B set with Seth David and Zen Selekta, and more.
